If the three upper and lower classes of Ma Han's sill boats are equipped with people, they can transport thousands of people across the sea at a time and seven thousand people, and they will have to go back and forth for nearly two months. Although Kong Rong's ten thousand stones of rice and grain are guaranteed, it is enough to support immigration to western Liaoning, but it is too long to afford it.
According to Taishici's suggestion, there are no less than dozens of large passenger ships in the Dashi family in Liaodong. These ships can be rented for passenger transport when they pass by Dashi, and the Yellow Turbans will be transferred to western Liaoning in a short time.
Ma Han immediately adopted it and handed it over to Zheng Gao to contact him, rent funds, and find Bailang Changtian Yu to solve the problem.
Starting from the third day of May, a continuous immigration operation began tensely in Laizhou Bay on the north bank of Qingzhou. As the Yellow Turbans who were dispersed that day returned one after another, more than 9,000 immigrated to the north, and finally more than 9,000 people gathered, which was beyond Ma Han's expectations.
Kong Rong, Beihai, agreed with both hands and feet - it's great! Get rid of all the rioters, Beihai will be settled! Qingzhou is safe! Oh, sending the plague god, right? Kong Rong's attitude, Ma Han would certainly not miss this good opportunity to quarrel. Not only did he squeeze out the "immigration fee" of 3,000 stones of grain in Beihai County, but he also asked Kong Rong to send troops to maintain public order, tents, firewood and other daily necessities, and even brought Wang Xiu as the commander-in-chief of immigration. Not to mention, Wang Xiu has been a county magistrate for nearly ten years, has rich grassroots work experience and a pragmatic attitude, and has managed the immigration work of nearly 10,000 people in an orderly manner. He is indeed an internal affairs talent.
Seeing that the entire Beihai County was turning around for its own immigration plan, the opportunity was rare, Ma Han began to be unwilling to accept only Luo's little Dingkou. The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were the most violent in the late Han Dynasty. At its peak, it reached 300,000. However, last year, it was brutally suppressed by Cao Cao, the governor of Yanzhou, and all of them were cruelly suppressed, and all of them were organized into Qingzhou soldiers. Of course, this suppression was not complete. The Yellow Turbans were like weeds, and a fire seemed to burn out. The spring of the next year was right and sprouted in the wind. Otherwise, there would be no encirclement of Beihai.
However, the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou have just been cut off, and there will be no Yellow Turban turbulence for a while. So where can I go?
Just as Ma Han was looking for a new source of population, on the ninth day of the fifth month, in the Prime Minister's Office of Duchang, Ma Han learned about an important battle situation from a letter from the governor of Qingzhou that Kong Rong had received: Yuan Shao, the governor of Jizhou, was about to launch a battle of revenge against the Heishan army. Jizhou was full of battles.
The cause of this war starts two months ago. In March of the fourth year of Chuping (193), the Heishan Captain Yu Du, under the instruction of Zhang Yan, the general of the Heishan Army's commander, the General of the Pingnan General Zhang Yan, joined forces with Tao Sheng, Huang Long, Zuo Xia, Guo Daxian, Li Damu, Yu Digen and other refugee fort leaders, and took advantage of the decisive battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan in Long to attack Yecheng, Wei County, Jizhou. This Yecheng is Yuan Shao's old nest, and he was named Yehou, his wife and children. All the soldiers and families in the army were in Yecheng.
When Yecheng was trapped, the Wei County Prefect Li Cheng and other officials were killed. The Yuan army, who had just obtained the Longcun victory, returned to Bo Luojin, was shaken and returned to help urgently. He rushed to Yecheng quickly. When he finally arrived at Yecheng, what he saw was the tragic situation of the old and weak city being slaughtered, women being lewd and their property being robbed.
For a moment, the army was so heartbroken that the city was covered with mourning and resentment surged.
Yuan Shao was surprisingly lucky. His wife and children had already fallen into the hands of the Heishan Army, but at this time, a traitor from the Heishan Army - Tao Sheng. Tao Sheng was also a senior general at the first level of Sima. He served as the Neihuang Xiaoshi in his early years. Tianran had affinity with famous families like Yuan Shao. He believed that the Heishan Army's robbery of Yecheng was to dig a grave. So he counterattacked and snatched Yuan Shao's family from Yu Du, and safely escorted him to the Qiqiu, and handed him to Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao was overjoyed and allowed him to be the General of Jianyi. Tao Sheng successfully speculated, and his former Heishan comrades would face cruel revenge from the Jizhou Army.
After two months of rest, the morale of the Jizhou army gradually stabilized, and the voice of revenge was rampant. In addition, General Fenwu Lu Bu led his army to surrender, Yuan Shao's strength increased greatly and his confidence increased greatly.
On the fifth day of the fifth month, Yuan Shao followed the hearts of the army and the people and formally launched an order to kill the Heishan Army. Since the end of the Han Dynasty, the curtain of the largest war in Jizhou is about to begin.
"Look at what can we get from this matter?" In Duchang Inn, the copy of the official letter obtained by the Ma Han General from Kong Rong was thrown to Taishici and Guan Hai.
Guan Hai, well, he is also a member of Bailang City, western Liaoning. He is temporarily appointed as the counterfeit Sima of the infantry army and pursues his deputy for Wu. However, Ma Han did not intend to let him go back to western Liaoning with the ship. On the contrary, before the Yellow Turbans in the North Sea were divided and settled, Guan Hai, the former Yellow Turbans Que, must be under the nose of Ma Han.
Taishi Ci pondered for a while and said, "Does Chengshou want to participate in it?"
Ma Han smiled: "If there is any benefit, there is nothing wrong."
Guan Hai coughed a few times. He was straying arrows in the battle of Duchang. Fortunately, the armor protection was good and it was not even a big deal. After recuperating for a while, with his strong physique, he was no longer injuring. Guan Hai was the kind of person who only obeyed force. Ma Han suppressed him twice, which forced him to accept it. Since he was defeated and captured, he could find a good future for himself and his subordinates. What reason would he not surrender?
Perhaps Ma Han was under great pressure on Guan Hai, and his speech was a little restrained: "The Yellow Turban Green and Strong actually had no combat power, and although the wolf-fanged flying cavalry guarding the city was strong, they had a little horse. The Jizhou army was no less than tens of thousands, and the Heishan army also had more than 100,000..."
Ma Han laughed and said, "We don't treat the two as enemies. No matter how many of them are, what do you have to do with me?"
Not to use the two as enemies? Guan Hai was stunned and scratched the back of his head: "Where should we stand?"
"We stand on our side, or, on the side where there are benefits to us."
"That's it...then we have to stand on the side of the Black Mountain Army."
Ma Han and Taishi Ci were stunned and looked at Guan Hai together.
Guan Hai coughed dryly: "I believe the city guard and Sima also know that the Heishan Army is actually similar to the Yellow Turban Army. The two armies have many connections with the Que. The Yellow Turban Army was dispersed, and most of them defected to the Heishan Army. Well, I have contacts with the Left Wang Zhangba and Qingniujiao of the Heishan Army. These two men have tens of thousands of Heishan soldiers under their command. In fact, most of them are old and weak, and even my soldiers are inferior to my soldiers. It is common for deserters to be soldier. As far as I know, although there are hundreds of thousands of Yicheng, the Heishan Army, in fact, except for the hundreds of Yicheng commanders of each qu, the rest of the soldiers are vulnerable... Well, only Heishan Commander Zhang Yan and his powerful general Sun Qing have a cavalry, among which there are many Hu people and strong combat power."
Ma Wen heard the meaning of Guan Hai's words, touched his chin and smacked his lips: "You mean, the 300,000 Black Mountain Army, most of them are like your Yellow Turban Army, are easy to... Well, these soldiers under the Heishan Qu Commander will be easily surrendered?"
Guan Hai said seriously: "If there are conditions like the promised conditions in the city detention center that day, I can guarantee that these people will definitely follow the city detention to western Liaoning."
While talking, suddenly, the wolf-fanged flying cavalry came from outside the mansion and reported: "Report to the city guard, our three sill boats have returned, and there are eight large passenger ships..."
